United States Steel, LLC, Fairless Hills, Notice of Affirmative 
Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration

    By letter of November 27, 2001, the United Steel Workers of America 
requested administration reconsideration of the Department of Labor's 
Notice of Negative Determination Regarding Eligibility to Apply for 
Worker Adjustment Assistance, applicable to workers of the subject 
firm. The denial notice was signed on September 28, 2001, and published 
in the Federal Register on December 5, 2001 (66 FR 63261). The workers 
were engaged in activities related to the production of tin mill 
products.
    The petitioner requested that the Department examine additional 
customers of the subject plant regarding their purchases of tin mill 
products during the relevant period. The Department of Labor will 
conduct a survey of these additional customers to determine if imports 
contributed importantly to the declines in employment at the subject 
plant.

Conclusion

    After careful review of the application, I conclude that the claim 
is of sufficient weight to justify reconsideration of the Department of 
Labor's prior decision. The application is, therefore, granted.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 11th day of February, 2002.
Edward A. Tomchick,
Director, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
